Abstract

The new digital airborne sensors will open up new applications for photogrammetric sensors. This paper outlines the requests and the realisation of the radiometric analyses as part of the DGPF-project “Evaluation of digital photogrammetric aerial camera systems”. In order to learn the system properly sensor testing in operational conditions is essential. A short overview on the ground truth is provided. Investigations and results of the radiometric sensor evaluation - as far as available - will be presented and classified. At the end of the report some facts that should be improved in a subsequent mission are pointed out. The evaluation has not yet been finished.
